The performance of several different density functional theory (DFT) methods, including GGA, hybrid-GGA, meta-GGA, and hybrid-meta-GGA methods, have been assessed in terms of their ability to accurately compute both heats of formation and ionization potentials of systems containing third row transition metals. Two dif…

Dynamic compression/shear experiments on a borosilicate glass at an average strain rate of 250 s −1 are conducted using a modified version of a split Hopkinson pressure bar. Instead of applying confining pressure, cuboid specimens with the material axis inclining to the loading direction at different angles (0°, 3°, 5…

The ferroelectric phase transition behavior in BaTiO 3 was investigated for various annealing times, temperatures, and Ba/Ti ratios by means of a differential scanning calorimeter. Coupling these observations with powder X‐ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy allowed new insights into the barium oxide…

Water-insoluble polysaccharide (TM3a), extracted from sclerotia of Pleurotus tuber-regium, was identified as a hyperbranched beta-d-glucan from the results of one- and two-dimensional NMR and GC-MS analysis. The degree of branching of TM3a is 65.5%. TM3a was fractionated by using a non-solvent addition method into 14…

We report measurements of the de Haas-van Alphen effect in CeIn3 in magnetic fields extending to ~90 T, well above the Ne'el critical field of Hc ~61 T. The unreconstructed Fermi surface a-sheet is observed in the high magnetic field polarized paramagnetic limit, but with its effective mass and Fermi surface volume st…

We report first principles ab initio density functional calculations of hydrogen dynam- ics in hydrogenated amorphous silicon. Thermal motion of the host Si atoms drives H diffusion, as we demonstrate by direct simulation and explain with simple models. Si-Si bond centers and Si ring centers are local energy minima as…

This DOI is not currently attached to any metadata records. DOIs can’t actually ever be deleted (they’re persistent), but sometimes our members create DOIs in error. We do have a process to approximate deletion which we follow only in rare cases where the DOI has been genuinely created in error, and most crucially, if…

Equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) is an efficient method of improving strength of metallic alloys through (sub) grain refinement to, typically, the sub-micrometer level by introducing intensive plastic strain into materials through repetitive pressing. In the present study, the post-ECAP aging effect on strength o…

In recent years, we have reported uncooled microbolometer with amorphous vanadium-tungsten oxide as a thermometric material. The reported tungsten-doped vanadium oxide showed very high TCR over -3.0%/K compared with common vanadium oxide, which generally has the TCR values near -2.0%/K. In this work, we characterized…
